Rotorheads censorship

It looks like you cant criticise Mike Becker in rotorheads. This post of mine today has been kicked out and also I have been kicked out. Does mister becker have some control over the rotorheads forum? It came because of some posts about the pilots guild.

Post:-

It's a very prestegous organisation I think.

I worry about its awards some times.

2 years ago "Captain Mike Becker has been awarded the “Captain John Ashton
Award for Flight Standards and Aviation Safety by the Guild of Air Pilots and
Air Navigators of London.”

That was wonderful! But still I worry about the words.

"Becker’s school has achieved an unrivalled 18,000 hours of accident-free
flight training."

18000 hours? Dream time.

Accident free? Dream time. For example is not a helicopter being consumed by fire an accident?

"Captain Becker was nominated for the safety award by Geoff Forsaith, a 73-year old veteran of the aviation industry."

A very nice man, Mr Forsaith. and Mr Becker's business partner I remember.

"Mike holds an ATPL (H) and CPL (A), Multiengine IFR and has flown accident free for over 11,000 hours and has been a consultant for the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority with a team of others writing the Australian National Standard for Helicopter training."

This is not including his accidents that are well known in aviation industry.

You can't criticise other mods either I am afraid. "4holepoler" is another one that comes to mind. Very heavy-handed. Any criticism of him, the toys are thrown out of the pram, your post removed and possibly banned from forum.

Must be short of mods.
